I'm running some tests on my old and trusted Raspberry Pi A+.
I've installed Raspbian - latest release, lite version. At the prompt, it's using 92 MB of RAM, mainly due to systemd and NetworkManager. As soon as you use it (even just for apt), it starts swapping and becomes almost unusable. It took 5 minutes just to install Python.I tried NetBSD (on the same memory card): 35 MB of RAM used (including Postfix!) and it's totally usable.

@stefano Every time I fresh install FreeBSD, I run `ps ax` to enjoy how nothing is running. :)

@pinkopanterata @stefano I run NetBSD on a Pentium II with 192MB of RAM and while it can be a bit slow to install packages, it’s quite usable.
NetBSD is the best 💕

@stefano It's really painful. Alpine Linux is nice for this hardware though

@jaj yes, Alpine is great on small devices

@maddiefuzz you must get free electricity, as a #PentiumII power consumption is way more costly than any current SBC. I bet getting one could break even in a few months. @pinkopanterata @stefano

@GeePawHill I keep forgetting that it's based on books. I should check those out, I've really enjoyed the show. Part of it is just that the cast is so great, though, so it's possible the books won't do it for me. Gary Oldman is absolutely brilliant.
